Another day with nothing much happening - apart from the return of the rain that haunted us all last week. Had to leave work early yesterday to pick up a parcel which turned out to be two Levellers CDs and a Video I'd ordered and got home to find some books I'd also ordered waiting for me (a new book on Brunel and a Dilbert omnibus) - wonder when I'll get the chance to read them. Have also got some CDs on order from the US so hopefully they won't be too long.

Really looking forward to tomorrow, and more for the arrival of the furniture and new bed than not being at work. Hopefully then we can get the house back to some semblance of normality and think about other things. Like the fact that I really could do with losing some weight. Not that anyone other than me thinks so, but I seem to have developed a small slab of spare stomach over the last couple of years and I think it's time to get shot of it. We shall see. Trouble is, just can't be bothered to exercise at the moment and like my food too much. Caught on the horns of a dilemma.

Sad to see the end of the current run of NCS: Manhunt last night. That and Waking the Dead are my faves from the BBC crime doubles and I could watch them every week. Will have to look around for repeats through the dish, even if I will know the end!

Plan to weld myself to the PC at some point over the weekend and do some scanning and stuff, so might get around to adding to this too!

Yeeep, how can it be tuesday already? Oh well, weekend went very well. Finally got the bedroom finished to our desired design, complete with large cherubs drawn on the wall (and a sunburst in the spare room) - pictures available soon. Also had a trip to London on Sunday for a golden wedding bash. Quite a good little trip (well, I did sleep for the majority of the driving bits) and good to see a whole slab of the family together.

Not much else been going on as a result of all that. Got a few more pages into HP, but not even had time for that really. Then again, am having thurs and fri off this week so should be able to find some time to enjoy myself over a four day weekend.
